Point taken and you're right if they start with a clean slate there is no predisposition. The problem is that Myers-Briggs did focus on the western culture, in fact I would narrow that down only to the USA. The numbers are misleading if she proclaims that some types are developed by cultural expectations since she is using a very small portion of the world. What about the eastern culture who leads the world in technology (NT), has a higher number of people whose spiritual followings are more inclined to be NF and has a greater population than the western part of the world.

Even if we take the clean slate theory into account there will probably more intuitives worldwide than sensors. Even if we do not take a clean slate into account, I would imagine that there are more Japaneese that would fall under NT and more Chineese and/or Indians that would most likely fall under NF.

Finally as I inquired here when first coming to the forum, how can you determine there are more or less E/I by simple dichotomy usage when Jung uses cognitive functions? Grouping all I's or E's together at best would be an averaging out process since you are grouping Ni, Si, Ti and Fi, and Ne, Se, Te, Fe to obtain those numbers.
